Is that domain trying to fool you?

Paste any domain — a suspicious link from an email, or your own brand's domain to see how easily it could be faked. Instant impersonation-risk score, computed entirely in your browser. Nothing you type ever leaves this page.

Check a domain

Tip: paste the full URL if you like — we will extract the domain.

Honest scope: this scores the domain name string for known impersonation tricks. It cannot tell you whether a domain is actually malicious or who registered it. A clean score is not a safety guarantee — always verify senders through a second channel.

How impersonation tricks work

Lookalike characters — "paypa1.com" swaps a letter for a number; "rnicrosoft.com" uses r+n to mimic m. Punycode — domains starting with xn-- can render as foreign characters that look identical to Latin letters. Hyphen stuffing — "secure-login-paypal-support.com" buries the real brand in noise. Abused TLDs — some cheap top-level domains show up in phishing far more often than others.
